“Working Families Party 🐺 @WorkingFamilies”
"Duvan Tomas Perez, killed working in a poultry plant.
Michael Schuls, killed working at a logging company.
Will Hampton, killed working at a landfill.
This is why child labor laws exist. Companies can’t be allowed to turn to kids when adults refuse to work for poverty wages."
Some labor unions dominate their industries, and make it super uncomfortable to hire non-union.
So it might be possible to unionize child labor, then force employers to only hire union kids, and then make them unaffordable as a means to discourage child labor practices. Kinda like taxing recreational drugs relentlessly to dissuade their use.
